Preparing a Rio Negro Biotope

[calivivarium1]

hehe, I think Wyomingite was thinking Cagatay Aydin meant something like "hello." What kinds of plants are you choosing?

 

[DrNo]

Great project... looking forward to updates!

I don't know what does 'greeting' mean but it's my name.

Yes, I thought it was something like hello. Good luck with your project, hope ya post some pictures.

I'm thinking to go with echinodorus tenellus,angustifolius,quadricostatus magdalenensis and osiris.I will post the pictures next week,because the water is still cloudy.Can i add some coconut shells?

Coconut shells are fine for use.

I like the west African tank, Cagatay. The lighting is good. The tank photographs well.

It was my friend's Nikon D40.The tank is in an aquascaping contest(turkish) in biotope category and after two days they will announce the results.
